HISTORICAL FORT
The ruin is also worth a visit. The magnificent views from this lookout are truly breath taking indeed. Fort Barrington was strengthened in 1790 to forestall attacks by French forces. Fort Barrington continued to play an important role in defense of the island until the second half of the XIX century (1801 -1900). A 300-foot hike to the summit (about 30 minutes) takes you up to an astounding view! It is well worth the effort.
